Potap Refuses to Release Song with Russian Singer Buzova on New Album
However, he did not specify whether the track will be released at all.
Ukrainian singer Oleksii Potapenko (known as Potap) has refused to release a song he recorded with Russian singer Olga Buzova for his new album. He said this in an interview with the YouTube channel «The Interviewer».
In November, Potap and Buzova announced the release of a joint track, which was to be included on his new album Kyivstyle. However, after this news, the singer faced criticism: Buzova had previously supported Russian President Vladimir Putin and visited the annexed Crimea.
Potap said that after facing criticism, he decided not to include this track on his next album. However, he did not specify whether the song would be released at all.
Oleksii Potapenko
singerThe duet [with Olga Buzova] is very interesting, fun, and eye-catching. But at the same time, it provoked a mixed reaction among some people. I hear everyone, and the last thing I wanted was to provoke hate and extreme positions. So this song will not be on the Kyivstyle album.
Potap also apologized again for singer Nadezhda Dorofeeva's music video, which used Heavenly Hundred Alley as a filming location. He noted that choosing the location for the video was his mistake.
In late June, Potap received the title of Honored Artist of Ukraine. Besides his singing career, he is also a co-founder of the Mozgi Entertainment production center.
